About School and Community Program Support Volunteer/Internship

Changing Worlds' mission is to foster inclusive communities through oral history, writing and art programs that improve student learning, affirm identity and enhance cross-cultural understanding. Our unique programming approach infuses writing, theatre, dance, or visual art into unique curriculum that examines the concept of culture, personal identity, family history, and community. This dynamic approach to student learning helps the program participants explore their own backgrounds and promote positive understanding of the similarities and differences in other peers while strengthening their writing and arts skills.

The School Program Support Volunteer/Intern will work directly with the Changing Worlds’ Program Director and the Manager of After School and Community Outreach Programs in support of school-based projects.
